String hostName = "192.168.0.8";
Integer portNumber = 20000;

Socket clientSocket = null;
InputStream is;
try{
clientSocket = new Socket(hostName,portNumber) ;
PrintStream ps = new PrintStream(clientSocket.getOutputStream());
ps.print("Hello Server");
//ps.flush();
ps.close();

}catch(IOException ioe){
System.out.println("Error "+ioe.getMessage());
ioe.printStackTrace();
}
try{
System.out.println("Reading now");
System.out.println(clientSocket.isConnected());//this returns true
//BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(clientSocket.getInputStream()));

//String line = reader.readLine();
System.out.println(clientSocket.getInputStream());//this gives the error Socket Closed
}catch(Exception ioe){
System.out.println("Reader error "+ioe.getMessage());
ioe.printStackTrace();
}
}
public static void main(String[] arg){
new ClientSide();
}
}
